[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giangdude:
So I bought my G2 off of craigslist and the guy I bought it off said it was a refurb (still had the plastics on it and everything). As soon as I got home I rooted it and installed CM7. I love this phone but I've been getting random shutdowns multiple times a day. I've noticed that it only happens when the screen is turned off.

I searched the forum but couldn't fix it with the suggestions I found. Battery is firmly in place, sd card slot locked, etc. I tried different ROMs and kernels but nothing seems to work. Am I out of luck?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spjuggalojoe:
Sorry to say, but you probably are SOL. I bought a G2 new from RadioShack in May and installed cm7 immediately. I had the same problem for months, or rather, mine will restart randomly. It seems to be intermittent though, sometimes it'll go days without happening, and other times it will happen repeatedly all day. Installing ICS hasn't helped either, so I thought it might be because of custom roms, but its not. My dad uses a stock g2 and has the same issues.

I have found that it seems to happen more whenever there is low/no cell coverage, when switching between tower and wifi, or after changing any radio state. Hopefully someone will come up with a solution for this apparent hardware problem. :-!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
When the phone shuts off, can you turn it back on with the power button; or do you have to pull the battery, reinsert, and press power button?

Is the GPS on while the shutdowns occur?

If you've tried various ROMs and kernels, I'd say that its likely a hardware problem. In that case, there is not much you can do.

Even refurbs have some kind of warranty (on AT&T you get 30 days). So you should contact the seller and see if he can exchange it with T-Mob for you.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlindeken:
I had the same issue, mine would shut off when screen was off, would need to pull battery to restart. I read somewhere(when i find the link I'll post) that turning the GPS off fixes. I turn off gps when not using and the issue went away.

More info in this thread... Seems to be hardware issue and answer is to send in, I just tirn off the gps when not in use and I have no issues.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giangdude:
Thanks for the responses everyone. I can turn it on normally after it shuts off, no battery pull necessary. A weird thing is that sometimes when I wake the phone up I can actually see my G2 in the process of shutting off. And I keep my GPS off, so it's not the sleep of death problem either. Just a regular shutdown at the most random times. So you guys are probably right that I got a lemon.
[Motorola Droid X2] miffy4:
This has been plaguing me for a few days now and I just want to share the solution I found for you guys. Have you ever had this issue? Your selected wireless network has been working great for days and suddenly one day it refuses to connect anymore. I would hit connect and the phone would be stuck in a "Obtaining IP address from WIFINETWORK" "Disconnected" "Scanning" cycle and so forth. You can wait forever and the phone will never connect to wifi.

The first time this happened to me I did a hard reset. Worked like a charm, I was able to use the network again for a few days until it began happening again. I decided a reset was not the solution so I looked for an answer. I happened upon sites like this:

http://anxiousnut.wordpress.com/201...d-obtaining-ip-address-wifi-issue-workaround/

Where certain solutions were posted but none seemed to work for me. I decided that it definitely wasn't my router (although some said resetting your wireless router may also work sometimes).

I finally stumbled upon the answer. The solution is to use a static ip by going into to Settings>Wireless & Networks>Wi-Fi settings>Menu Click to Advanced and then check Use static IP. You must figure out these values: IP Address, Gateway, Netmask, DNS 1, DNS 2.... Luckily, it is pretty easy.

IP ADDRESS

To find this, go back and select your wifi network. Hit "Modify" and see the IP address listed. Copy that down, this is your IP Address.

GATEWAY

This is your router's IP address. You will need a computer that is connected to the network already. For Windows, run a command prompt and type ipconfig to show you the default gateway address. For Mac, go to the network preference pane in system preferences. Click advanced and go to TCP/IP tab.

NETMASK

You will find this in the previous step. Often it is 255.255.255.0.

DNS 1

Put in the same IP you found for the gateway box.

DNS 2

Same as above.

In the end it will look something like this:

IP Address: 192.168.1.107

Gateway: 192.168.1.1

Netmask: 255.255.255.0

DNS 1: 192.168.1.1

DNS 2: 192.168.1.1

Connect again and it works. No need to factory reset. Enjoy!

Update: After a few days, something in the phone's wifi settings seem to "correct" itself and your wifi will not work with this method anymore. Simply go back and disable static IP and your phone will be back to its old self again. If the symptoms appear again, you can follow these steps again.

[Motorola Droid X2] Wiistarman:
thanks solved :D my problem i m so very grateful
[Motorola Droid X2] DigitalMD:
Careful, this "fix" could be very temporary... If you set a static IP and do not configure your router to use static IPs you will at some point run into conflicting IPs if you have other devices on the network. The router is dynamically allocating IP addresses if you use a standard DHCP setup and can give your chosen IP for your phone to any device on the network, creating a situation when you cannot connect or you can connect but it does not work. If you want to use static ips on your phone with the router, you have to configure the router to understand this by disabling DHCP and setting up static IPs for all devices or by allocating fixed IP for certain MAC addresses. SO either setup both your phone and router to use a static IP or change the DHCP lease time to something other than "infinity" .
[Motorola Droid X2] RyanThaDude:
Most routers strart DHCP allocation at .100. Check with your particular routers manual. If you assign the IP less than .100 you should be fine as long as you don't assign another device with the same IP.
[Motorola Droid X2] idarwin:
A workaround != A fix.

I'm with DigitalMD - this is a very kludgy "fix" that will lead to trouble in the future. I am coming to believe there is a consistent interoperability issue between Android and some other systems (OS X and some routers??) that leads to issues - both my GN with 4.0.4 and my JetStream with 3.1 will routinely fail to connect both to my Mac (10.7) and the routers, primarily in a couple of particular offices - maybe it's just a high-noise area (one is an older building). The devices both connect fine to my home wifi (WRT54G) and most internet cafes.
[Motorola Droid X2] sauron82:
Not a good fix

This isn't really a fix for the problem. I connect to multiple wireless networks, between work and home and friend's houses, and they all have different routers. Setting a static IP is impractical, because I have to turn it on with certain networks and off with other networks, or change the static IP from one router to another.

Why does this happen? It works fine for a while, then one day it just doesn't want to take an IP address from the router. For me, it works fine at home and at my parents, but at work, it doesn't want to connect anymore. It's been connecting fine for months, then yesterday it got stuck with obtaining IP.

Setting a static IP isn't a solution; it's a cop-out. Does anybody know why this happens? Does anybody know how to fix it?
[Motorola Droid X2] katylawrence:
I was experiencing this from past couple of days than I just put static IP works really great for me :laugh: it was a biggest headache, now past.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] thuynh022:
I was given this Infuse to try and reset, easy task, or so I thought. Here is my problem I have tried every method I have read about to factory reset the phone. But nothing works, I've tried doing it through recovery, dialing the code, going into privacy>factory reset, and even trying to ODIN with GTG's ultimate unbrick. Nothing seems to work. It looks like it'll reset, but every time the phone reboots, I'm looking at all the apps/accounts still installed and on the phone.

Anybody know what the problem is?

Anybody got a solution?

I've tried GTG's ultimate unbrick twice now.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
Never had that problem personally.

Have you tried going to:

Setting/privacy/factory reset?

Warning though: I think this will erase EVERYTHING on the the phone and SD CARD.

If you were to procede, odin gtg's then factory reset from the phone settings..not cwm

idk if you want to try it or not but heimdall has an option of re-partition; (upper left hand corner)

if you're rooted, you may want to use terminal emulator and back up "efs" first then save the efs on your pc;

then try heimdall again with re-partition also.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] thuynh022:
I've tried the repartition with Odin, but not heimdall, I'll give it a try though.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] thuynh022:
I did not see any option to repartition in heimdall.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
To be honest, your problem is unique.

I don't think I am qualified to offer sound advise.

It is odd that a reset is not working and Odin back to stock is not working either.

I'm thinking that heimdall may not accomplished the erase either.

if you want to try heimdall you will have to read more.

You'll have to learn how to use Heimdall Frontend.

The pit files and stock packages can be found in the one click package or unpacking the stock leaks.

Be careful, though...not familiar with it may potentially brick your phone
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Dani897 has a thread of hemidall packages..he will know better how to solve this problem...I'm not a hemidall user either...

ALL HAIL *Z*E*U*S* !
[Samsung Infuse 4G] thuynh022:
Very strange issue indeed. I repartition with a pit file in Odin and still nothing. Very, very strange indeed. I tried heimdall about 4 times now, with and without flashing bootloader, no change either.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
I'm familiar with its use but I'm afraid to offer advise that may brick the phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
I found this...

See if it works for you.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3000:
Hi guys i have a tiny problem i need clarifying please.

Before anyone says anything i already asked this question and no one seemed to be able to answer it to me. So here it goes.

My question is can we combine the two. What i mean is use Voltage Control to set cpu Voltages and use No Frills to adjust Cpu clock speeds. Voltage Control on my latest rom that i am on Hyperdroid latest version does not save my overclocking and reverts back to stock frequencies 1200Mhz-200Mhz even after i save it on boot. I leave it to reboot for a few minutes till the phone settles and go to check it and governor and i/o schedulers are saved and my voltages also but the only thing that reverts back is the cpu clock frequencies. When using No -Frills though it saves my overclocking.

So my question can i use one app to overclock and the other to undervolt and use them both at the same time?

I know stupid question and i am pretty sure that i know the answer already but if i can get a few opinions regarding the matter i would appreciate it..Also why on the latest firmware it reverts back to stock frequencies even when we save it on Voltage Control is it a bug or something and does anyone if it will get fixed as i really like that app since it does everything i need it to.

Thanks again
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maranello69:
you can use both, but I don't see why, VC has also CPU sliders so you can set both parameters from one app
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3000:
Yes i know that. But see the whole point of asking this question is that Voltage Control reverts my frequencies back to stock..So say i try to set my cpu clock frequencies to 1600max-200min and then save it and set on boot once i reboot my phone it reverts it back to stock frequencies...Hence why i am currently using only No frills at the moment till this issue is fixed...And hence why i was wondering if i can undervolt with one app and overclock with the other

Hi everybody,

I'm facing 100% Awake problem. But i'm still getting around 30Hrs backup with around 50 mins talktime, and periodically connecting to internet via WiFi every 30m using schedule of Juice Defender.

But is this normal? I'm running MIUI 1.12.30 with SwiftExtreme overclocked to 1.2Ghz with Owain Tweaks.

Hit the "THANKS" button on the right if I helped you
[LG Optimus 2x] scrm3r:
Well i'm not sure what i'm getting is correct or not. What i can do is help you with your battery problem.

What you are seeing is with SetCPU set to 1.2Ghz. No other profiles were created. I'm not against overclocking but a little concerned about Undervolting.

It once happened that my battery was drained from 100% to 5% in around 7 hrs. I immediately restored my previous backup from CWM and my phone gave another 4hrs backup at 1%.

Try reflashing your ROM. Ensure you do a full wipe, then delete cache followed by clearing dalvic cache from advance menu. Then after installing the ROM delete the battery history file. And Charge the mobile to 100% and let it drain down to 0%. Then again charge it to 100% without interruption and continue to use as normal.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FixB:
Hi all !

I've rooted my Play and looking forward to O/C it (mainly for N64 emulation :p).

Reading several threads, I gathered that I need to unlock my bootloader and flash a custom kernel (DoomLord's for example).

My Play is not simlocked, so I can use the official unlocking for my bootloader.

If I understand well, I'll then lose some DRM-credentials... But I could not find exactly what that would mean. I guess there would be no problem with apps bought from the android market. But would I lose the games pre-installed on the play? Or the free games I got from EA (Dead Space, etc.) ??

Another n00b question: when flashing a custom kernel (keeping the stock rom), vill I lose everything on my phone and therefore, do I have to backup/restore everything? And if so, what would you recommand in order to have a full backup?

Thanks so much for your help !!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danlivesey:
Drm is your your certificate for official updates and if you lose your drm official updates would brick your phone now, if you can't do a official update you can always flash using flash tool. You won't lose any of your games or the xperia store. There is a touch point method so you won't lose your drm. You won't lose any data from your rom when flashing a kernel. When do flash a kernel then you can do a full back up through cwm.

Unlocking the bootloader + flashing a custom kernel: must I backup everything before and restore afterwards, or do these operations keep everything intact (apps, datas, etc.) ??

Thanks for your kind help dan !
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danlivesey:
Yes that's the method and no you don't need to back your data up or anything when flashing a kernel. You only need to back your data up when installing custom roms.
